Although she knows that some people "love" their divorce, it isn't doesn't make the situation any less heartbreaking.
"You never wish to corrupt something that's so planned and intended to be forever," she reflected, but added, "At the same time, divorce is also the greatest awakening."
Nonetheless, Jeannie is grateful for her marriage to Jeezy (real name Jay Wayne Jenkins), who filed for divorce in September 2023.
"I'm never gonna regret that I got married because I'm so thankful to have experienced love in so many different ways," she said. "Now I just have to—instead of experiencing love, 'cause I've got that down—I have to define what healthy love looks like for me. But that first starts with me.”
As for whether Jeannie—who was previously married to Freddy Harteis from 2007 until their divorce in 2018—would consider walking down the aisle once again?
"I actually would because I really don't wanna ever put a block on myself," she explained. "You can never put a container around love. You can never say, like, 'Oh, I'm only going to find love,’ if I'm saying I'm never gonna get married again."
"I enjoy what love brings," she continued. "I enjoy watching two humans come together and release their guard and just become like their childlike versions of what they hope love to be. That's like such a beautiful, special, privileged place to reach somebody."
